Some people speculate it's an Equifax cert that's expiring, but I don't know the details of it



Two other theories:

- Firmware is running SSL which doesn't support SHA-256, and a SHA-1 cert is expiring soon.

- Device (or other devices it communicates with) rely on cert pinning back to Symantec owned roots, and will somehow be affected by the Symantec distrust and Digicert acquisition.
